Description[]
Text originally taken from the GT's page on McLaren's website.
The world has changed. The superlight McLaren GT is the Grand Tourer reimagined. Rejuvenated. And the results are extraordinary. Strikingly beautiful. And the lightest, quickest accelerating GT.
The GT is shaped by our relentless desire to challenge the established order. We took the key ingredients and reinvented and applied them in new, innovative ways. Then combined with the power, speed and performance that is undiluted McLaren.
The GT is a supercar that is thrilling, yet refined, dynamic and engaging. Never before has a GT car with such incredible dynamic capabilities been coupled with such class leading refinement.
The GT is supremely quick. In fact, it’s the fastest car and lightest Grand Tourer – with blistering acceleration. But it’s the way this astonishing performance is delivered that’s unique. The new McLaren 4.0 litre twin-turbocharged V8 engine delivers near endless power and torque, yet it’s also tuned to be refined and efficient. Acceleration is seamless and smooth. Poise and polish are always part of the drive. The GT offers the perfect blend of body control and ride comfort. Thrilling handling is balanced with laser-precision straight-line stability. And then there’s that stirring exhaust note that you expect from a McLaren supercar.
Beneath the muscular elegance of the GT’s body lies a masterclass in engineering and innovation. The new McLaren 4.0 litre twin-turbocharged V8 delivers 620PS and 630Nm of torque. Combine these figures with a weight of just 1,530kg, and performance is stunning… Standing start to 100km/h (0-62mph) takes just 3.2 seconds. While 0-200km/h (0-124mph) is achieved in 9 seconds. Top speed is as spectacular as you’d expect from a McLaren – at 326km/h (203mph). Built around its lightweight carbon fibre MonoCell II-T chassis, the GT has McLaren DNA shaping every bit of its personality. A lightweight GT with comfort and performance. Because more power shouldn’t have to mean more weight.

The McLaren GT was added in the British Tour Season Update as a high Class C car with the following rank statistics:
- Stock rank: 2,319 (

rank: 2,536
rank: 2,847 (

rank: 3,123 (

Performance[]
At its stock rank, the McLaren GT has a top speed rating of 326, above average acceleration rating (71.20), average handling rating (53.99), and poor nitro efficiency rating (34.61). The GT has a performance map similar to the Lamborghini Gallardo LP 560-4's, but has better stock top speed, acceleration and handling in exchange for worse nitro efficiency and lower upgrade scalability in all respects, except acceleration. Thus, at lower ranks, the GT is able to take most corners at slightly higher speeds than the Gallardo. Because of its high stability, the GT has a tendency to perform fewer barrel rolls off curved ramps.
The McLaren GT's upgrades provide the greatest increases to its nitro efficiency, followed by its handling, with the least improvements to its top speed and acceleration. Compared to the Gallardo at MAX rank, the GT has better acceleration, giving it faster starts and corner exit speeds, but marginally lower top speed and nitro efficiency, as well as considerably worse handling, so the Gallardo has a slight overall advantage on straights and sharp/long turns.
Among all Class C cars, the McLaren GT's acceleration-focused, but otherwise balanced, performance characteristics means it generally performs better on technical tracks, such as The Caribbean and Osaka, where it can make use of its high acceleration to get up to speed quickly after exiting corners. It can still perform well on tracks with a mix of long straights and sharp corners, such as New York, Shanghai, Auckland, and Buenos Aires. While it still performs reasonably well in speed-oriented locations, like Cairo or Scotland, these areas are dominated by cars with considerably higher top speed (mainly the Arrinera Hussarya and Vencer Sarthe).
Overall, the McLaren GT is one of the kings of Class C king and does extremely well in multiplayer in the hands of a good player.
Usage[]
Due to the British Tour Season Structure, unlocking the McLaren GT is one of the requirements to participate in the Ultima RS's Special Event; it also needs to be starred up to to complete all conditions on the stages featuring it.
In Multiplayer World Series, the McLaren GT is unlocked for use upon reaching Silver League; it is also automatically unlocked if the player finishes in Platinum League or better during the previous World Series season. The GT's high acceleration gives it relatively strong starts versus other Class C cars, and it can eventually catch up to and overtake faster-accelerating Class C cars on longer tracks, such as the Artega Scalo Superelletra, Acura NSX (2017), ATS Automobili Corsa RR Turbo, Renault Sport R.S. 01, Brabham BT62, and Ares S1, due to its higher top speed. On longer tracks and tracks with many straights, the GT will face stiff competition from Class C cars with slightly worse acceleration but higher top speeds.
As it is one of the 5 top-ranked Class C cars at MAX, the McLaren GT is eligible for participation in the Elite: Class C event, held once every 5 weeks, which rewards tokens.

- PRO rank: 1861 (+550)
- Tuning Kit bonus: +56
- Nitro Efficiency: 6.5/11/15
Performance[]
The McLaren GT at features semi-wide drift radius, mediocre acceleration and nitro efficiency (especially its Level 2 nitro).
Like other McLaren cars, this car also has a tendency to skid, although this is not happened as frequent and will only apply if the player steer to a certain angle, unlike cars such as the 2018 McLaren X2, McLaren Senna GTR - a car that was based on the McLaren Solus GT, which is also a car that was introduced in the same update along with the GT, that can skid even on a straight line.
Unlike the McLaren Artura - a car that was introduced in the same update, the GT's performance is inferior to other S1861 cars, barring a few exceptions, such as the Pagani Huayra R, RAESR Tachyon Speed. However, compare to these 2 cars, the difference is minimal and can be considered the same in some cases.
